can anyone help me with spotting the difference between a late model r32 gtr and a late madel v-spec gtr? i'm looking at buying a gtr but everyone reckons there's is v-spec. i haven't believed any of them have been yet. just need to know th e difference.

thanks

Hey buddy, from what i know, there is 2 v-spec models in the r32's.. in 93 they had a v-spec, in 94 they had a v-spec II. both had Brembo brakes, and BBS 17x8's. they definately do exist and im sure they had other differences, maybe no rear wiper or abs??? {maybe thats a nismo car??!!} not too sure, but the Vin# can be used in the forum to find out if the car/s your looking at are genuine...

get the vin number off the build plate and post it in here

someone will put it through the nissan fast software and tell you if it is a v-spec of not.

R32 GTR - Standard (22nd May 1989)

R32 GTR Nismo - Standard R32 GTR but with a Body Kit, which was designed to improve the air flow to the intercooler (2 Air vents were installed on the front bar), the engine (A Bonnet Lip Spoiler was fitted) and down force (A Boot Lip Spoiler was fitted under the standard spoiler. (22nd February 1990)

R32 GTR N1 - N1 Specification Engine = Race Spec (more refined engine). The car had the ABS, A/C, Sound System, Rear Wiper and Boot Carpet were removed and light weight head lights we installed all to save weight. (19th July 1991)

R32 GTR V-Spec (Victory Specification) - Standard R32 GTR with upgraded brakes to Brembos, updated ATTESA E-TS (Advanced Total Traction Engineering System for All-Terrain Electronic Torque Split) and factory 17" BBS wheels and 235/45/17 tires. (3rd February 1993)

R32 GTR V-Spec II - Same as V-Spec, only with wider tyres, 245/45/17. (14th February 1994)

Only good thing about the V-Spec's were its Brembo brakes, other thatn that, I read that they weighed more then the standard R32 GTR's.

I would pick the N1 out of all of them due to its engine refinement. Change the colour to Black or Gun Metal Grey (As the N1's only came in a Crystal White colour), add on a Nismo body kit and Nismo LMGT 4 wheels.

+1 and its the safest way to know.

Yeah, they are pretty rare... there were just over 400 built in total so finding one would be difficult.

Also, from what I heard they don't have a/c.... which is not ideal as a road car

Yep, no A/C.

Does not really bother me as I never use my A/C, even in the summer, just have the windows down or drive later during the day when its not so hot.

    • Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.
    • Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
